     %PICTURE FRAME PARADIGM BOUNDARY LIMIT CONTEXT 920921

     A picture frame defines the boundaries of the picture
which  it  frames,  and by its nature in relation  to  its
environment  affects how we perceive the picture.  We  are
lead  to  perceive  what  is in the picture  and  what  is
outside  the picture by the way the frame plays a role  in
leading us  to  perceive the picture as we  do  within the
frame.

     Our views of the each other,  the world around us and
the universe as a whole are framed by the concepts, words,
and attitudes which we choose to use as the frame for  our
view of each other, the world around us,  and the universe
as  a whole.  We often regard the view which we see within
our chosen frame as being independent from us, objectively
real,   and  beyond our control.  We forget that  we  have
played  important roles in creating our view of the  world
by  how we have framed it through our choices.  We  cannot
avoid playing important roles in creating our views of the
world  by  how we frame our views through our choices.  We
can  however  seek  to make integrative frames which  will
lead us into integrative views and relationships.

     We  frame  our views of ourselves and each  other  by
what concepts play primary roles as we view ourselves  and
each  other:   electrons,   protons,   neutrons,    atoms,
molecules,  cells, tissues, organs, organisms,  biological
relationships,  personal relationships, families,  tribes,
communities, cultures, rights,  wrongs, moral codes, legal
systems,   spirits,  souls,  addictions,  diseases,  sins,
planets, solar systems, stars, gas-clouds,  galaxies, etc.
We frame our  views  of ourselves  and  each other by what
concepts  and words we choose to have play major roles  as
we construct our frameworks for responding to each other.

     The  process  of framing our views of  ourselves  and
each  other is always a reflexive process - - - especially
when  we play collusive games of mutual self deception  in
terms  of which we see ourselves only within the framework
of  our  trying  to be objective in all our  relationships
with  each  other.   Human relationships by  their  nature
cannot be purely objective relationships,   for  all human
relationships are reflexive relationships to degrees which
scientists rarely acknowledge overtly and explicitly.   We
frame  our  views of ourselves and each other to  a  great
degree  by how honestly,  overtly and explicitly  we  deal
with the reflexive nature of our human relationships.
